  • FIG. 11 shows a schematic diagram of the case that the moving picture in which a box image with the 200-level gray-scale scrolls horizontally on a background image with the 100-level gray-scale is displayed.
  • the vertical axis indicates the gray-scale level and the horizontal axis indicates a display position of the horizontal direction of the liquid crystal display.
  • FIG. 11( a ) is scrolled across in the right direction, when the imaging defocus does not occur, ideally the box image is displayed after one frame, as shown in FIG. 11( b ).
  • the imaging defocus in which the gray-scale level of the background image and the gray-scale level of the box image are averaged appears in the edge parts of the box image, as shown in FIG. 11( c ).
  • the display image after one frame period includes the imaging defocus, and the image quality of the moving picture is degraded. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11( e ), compared with FIG. 11( d ), the imaging defocus can be reduced in the display image after one frame period by displaying the image in which the emphasis processing is further performed. As a result, the image quality of the moving picture can be improved.
  • the input image information and the image information delayed for one frame period by the frame memory part are inputted to the emphasis coefficient multiplying part 4 b .
  • the imaging correction coefficient outputting part 15 makes the decision whether the input image information is imaged or not imaged on the basis of the inputted imaging/not-imaging information, and outputs the imaging correction coefficient ⁇ .
  • Various values can be used as the imaging correction coefficient ⁇ according to the degree of the imaging defocus of the image which is imaged and the response characteristics of the liquid crystal display, and usually the value is in the range from 1 to 2.
  • ⁇ is set to 1.5 in the case that the input image information is the image information which is imaged
  • ⁇ is set to 1 in the case that the input image information is the image information which is not-imaged.
  • the imaging/not-imaging information can be obtained through various kinds of information. For example, when the input image information is the image recorded in DVD (Digital Versatile Disk), the imaging correction coefficient outputting part 15 makes the decision that the input image information is the image information is imaged like the movie, when the input image information is the game image, the imaging correction coefficient outputting part 15 makes the decision that the input image information is the image information which is not imaged.
  • the outputted imaging correction coefficient ⁇ is inputted to the emphasis coefficient multiplying part 4 b .
  • the emphasis coefficient multiplying part 4 b the calculation of equation (7) is performed by using the predetermined emphasis coefficient ⁇ and the inputted imaging correction coefficient ⁇ , and the emphasis image information is outputted.
  • the outputted emphasized image information is transformed into the emphasized gray-scale level information by the gray-scale level information conversion part 6 , and transmitted to the liquid crystal display 8 to be displayed on the liquid crystal display 8 .
  • the high-quality moving picture can be displayed on the liquid crystal display by the processing which is so easy that the moving picture data can be processed in real-time by the software.
  • the liquid crystal displaying method according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention is basically the same as the first embodiment, however, the frame rate of the input image information is different from the refresh rate of the liquid crystal display. Accordingly, the implementation apparatus implementing the liquid crystal displaying method of the sixth embodiment differs from the implementation apparatus implementing the liquid crystal displaying method of the first embodiment in the operation of the emphasis coefficient multiplying part 4 .
  • the frame rate of the image information such as MPEG video data is generally 15 fps (frame per second) or 30 fps
  • the refresh rate of the liquid crystal display is generally 60 Hz. Therefore, for example, in the case that the same processing as the first embodiment is preformed to the input image having 30 fps by the emphasis coefficient multiplying part 4 and the input image having 30 fps is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8 having the refresh rate of 60 Hz, as shown in FIG. 12 , the input image in which the emphasis coefficient multiplying processing has been performed is displayed twice for the refresh rate of 60 Hz of the liquid crystal display 8 .
  • the emphasis coefficient ⁇ is calculated by the method described in the first embodiment, since the emphasis coefficient ⁇ is calculated so that the response of the liquid crystal display 8 is finished after 1/60 second as shown in FIG. 12 , the input image, in which the response is finished after 1/60 second and the emphasis multiplying processing has been performed, is displayed twice for 1/30 second, so that the over-emphasis occurs.
  • the display image of the liquid crystal display 8 changes from the input image of the n-th (n is an integer) frame to the input image of the n+1-th frame, the image in which the emphasis multiplying processing has been performed is displayed, and in other cases, the input image is continuously displayed as it is.
  • FIG. 13 shows the case that the input image having 30 fps is displayed on the liquid crystal display 8 having the refresh rate of 60 Hz.
  • the image displayed on the liquid crystal display 8 changes from the image of the n-th frame to the image of the n+1-th frame, the emphasis image of the n+1-th frame is displayed, when the image of the n+1-th frame is continuously displayed, the image of the n+1-th frame is displayed as it is on the liquid crystal display 8 .
  • the input image information displayed on the liquid crystal display changes from an n-th frame (n is an integer) to an n+1-th frame
  • the brightness difference information obtained by subtracting the luminance information of the n-th frame from the luminance information of the n+1-th frame of the input image information and the chrominance difference information obtained by subtracting the color-difference information of the n-th frame from the color-difference information of the n+1-th frame of the input image information are respectively multiplied by the emphasis coefficient ⁇
  • the emphasis image obtained by adding the luminance information of the n-th frame and the color-difference information of the n-th frame to the brightness difference information multiplied by the emphasis coefficient ⁇ and the chrominance difference information multiplied by the emphasis coefficient ⁇ , respectively, is displayed on the liquid crystal display, while the input image information is displayed on the liquid crystal display as it is when a display image does not change.
  • the emphasis coefficient multiplying processing is performed only in the case that the display image to the liquid crystal display 8 is changed, and the emphasis coefficient multiplying processing is not performed in other cases, so that the over-emphasis does not occur and the response of the liquid crystal display 8 can be completed within one frame period.
  • the liquid crystal displaying method of the embodiment even in the case that the frame rate of the input image is different from the refresh rate of the liquid crystal display, the high-quality moving picture can be displayed on the liquid crystal display without over-emphasis by the processing which is so easy that the moving picture data can be processed in real-time by the software.
